JOHN WICK 3 takes on CRIME (and jesus?)

[@thewhatness]

I've never been more viscerally wounded than seeing Mikey sadly eat a sandwich on a park bench. _Let me hug you, you wonderful being._

[@terri8372]

I thought the same thing. Mikey breaks my heart regularly with the things he says in his videos.

[@jelmore49]

When I walked out of this movie, I said "I can't wait to see what Mikey has to say about this installment." I was not disappointed; another wonderfully thoughtful discussion of this movie series, on par with the first two.

[@stigoftdump]

[@tychoazrephet3794]

When I heard that John Wick 3 was in the works, I was convinced John would die. It seemed so logical to me, here we have an astounding trilogy of films where each installment has raised the stakes and increased the jeopardy higher than before, while simultaneously expounding upon the lore and mythos of the universe in which they're set. It's the Matrix, but, you know, better. I was so perplexed by John's decision to not kill Winston, to turn his back on the absolution he literally just chopped a finger off for, why? Out of loyalty to his father figure? Because he doesn't want to live as the Baba Yaga working for the High Table for the rest of his days? Watching this video made me realize no, the answer is so much more simple and so heartbreaking. This man, this engine of destruction, this walking apocalypse cannot stop. He wants to stop, he wants to have what was stolen from him, but you cant kill your way into paradise. The man, the myth, the legend. John Wick cannot escape himself, the person he was died when Helen died, and was killed again when Daisy died. Now there is only the Boogeyman, and the Boogeyman cant ride off into the sunset, it must run and kill and hunt and burn until it stumbles and dies in the dust. It isn't fair, it isn't right.

[@veralenora4033]

The ends NEVER justify the means ... because the means create the end.

[@Posiman]

I was baffled by this turn as well. But it makes some sense. All John wants is peace. But there is no peace for him when he's excommunicado. So during the whole movie all he does is try to make amends so that he may return to the system. But Winston offers him a third choice: let's declare a war on the system. And it's Winston's betrayal, made in exchange for his return to the system (Cypher in Matrix anyone?) that makes John realize there is no peace nor for him nor for anyone, who dares to help him. Not until the system is torn down completely. Luckily there this Morphe...ehm...Bowery King guy, who's also had enough of bowing down to the system and he and his ragtag group of underground dwellers want to turn the fucker down as much as John does.

[@Spooderman-sq5uj]

“What are we gonna do about Jooooohn Wick?” I’m reminded of what Viggo said. “John will come for you, and you will do nothing, because you can do nothing.” That’s literally the Adjudicator.

[@evanjohnson1299]

John was doomed for this path from the beginning, the second he tried to retire this is the path he would take, the rules of this world wouldn't allow anything else. The only thing his wives death and the attack by Josef accomplish is to speed up the chain of events. The second he gave that marker the the Italian he was doomed. He was never going to let John be he had too many plans, the moment the marker was finished the Italian had no choice but to put a hit on John or else he'd look weak and complicit, meaning that John's own rules won't allow betrayal so John HAD to kill the Italian. Even if it wasn't in the Continental John still killed a member of the high-table so John still had to die. This entire system is based on rules and consequences and the moment a force goes against that it'll end in disaster. Rule #1 You are only truly out if you're dead, John tried to break that rule.

[@MrJgreen12]

This is an excellent breakdown of the underlining thread of all three movies. You did a great job. Everything John did to "get out" predestined him for this path, once his marker was called in. Now after the events of the third film, the only way John can get out and find peace, is to burn the whole system to the ground until there is nothing left. The High Table just couldn't let him have his revenge and leave him be, so now they will feel the wrath of the force of nature that is John Wick. John will now teach them the lesson of why you should always "let sleeping dogs lie".

[@henryburby6077]

Right, but who is making the rules? Like in catch 22, there is a way out, but only by rejecting the rules and their makers and fighting back.

[@sgtsnokeem1139]

No 1: The justified revenge if overly bloody. He left that violence behind. He hated it but welcomed it when it was useful to him. No 2: The rejection of the world he lived in. He shot Santino square in the face in the Continental despite being warned. He was telling that world to get fucked. No 3: The consequences of that rejection, his running from them and eventually facing them. No 4: If I had to guess.... Him coming to terms with that reaction and going to war with it.

[@tjfrye11]

@@sgtsnokeem1139 i'd like to modify no 1 a bit: "he hated it but it pulled him back in" or "he hated it but lost control" or "he hated it but had no choice"... "welcomed it when it was useful to him" makes it sound like if someone just annoyed him he would've gone back to it, but it took quite a bit for him to go back to it

And can you break down any and all cinematic universes so that they fit within the Matrix universe? Thoughts like that make me miss the Cracked yt channel but I digress. Fantastic video!

When I watched the movie I felt that it was too self aware and (oddly) I was bothered by the fact his fighting style changed from the first to the last movie. Also felt they stopped counting bullets and stopped behaving logically (unarmed- yet doesn't take a weapon from a defeated foe). Didn't hate the movie or feel it disrespected what came before but really felt it was a "B" effort instead of an "A". *Loved* your video. Feel like you put in an "A" effort... yet again.

[@RiotWoolf]

Honestly, your video kind of made me realize how perfect it was to have a non-binary person represent The High Table, from a symbolic perspective. The Adjudicator represents the High Table physically and aesthetically, but linguistically as well. As they/them pronouns are more commonly used in reference to multiple people, having a non-binary person, who uses they/them pronouns is perfect. Because their entire identity makes them emblematic of a group. Casting Enbies as representative characters like this should definitely be done more. From the bottom of my NB heart, thanks you again for such a wonderful video Mikey. ❤

[@RileyTheLongboarder]

I.S. Frank whoa I never thought if it that way! I love the film even more now

[@henryburby6077]

I think the Adj is a great choice because the contrast of their job (binary) and their identity (non binary) mirror the ultimate complexity which the high table itself cannot acknowledge. The table exists only to protect its own power, and is thus illegitimate.

I am not prepared to say that you are a gift from the movie gods, but, it has crossed my mind

[@cluelesspotato8945]

I’m sure someone has pointed this out before, but it kind of looks like the movies are following the stages of grief. With John being in denial thinking it will be a simple hit in the first movie. Then he’s angry that he’s returned to the life he swore to leave in the second. Lastly, trying to get out/stay alive by bargaining in the third (though the end credit scene does go against this). If there is any weight to this, then John Wick 4 should be depression. Maybe he begins to question himself and if Hellen would want him to do what he has done. This is not as important but if John Wick 5 is acceptance then either A.) he finally accepts that he can no longer continue and either dies or goes into hiding. Or B.) The Continental finally realizes that they can’t hold him back so they just let him go.

[@nicklaskowalski]

[@Indrid-Cold]

So, an interesting piece of trivia...After BRANDON LEE died during the production of THE CROW, it was CHAD STAHELSKI Who finished all of his scenes! Chad Stahelski being, of course, the director of the John Wick franchise, as well as Keanu Reeves’ stunt double in all of the matrix movies....He actually had to play Brandon in one of the most important and beloved scenes in the movie. The entire montage where Brandon rises from the grave with no shirt on and finds his way back to his apartment, only to have flashbacks, and run toward the circular broken window and grab ahold of the frame and flip outside of the high-rise only to somersault back in, every bit of that is Chad. They call it the “transformation into the crow” sequence. Even the scene where he sits down and applies his crow make up, and then opens the closets and puts on the shirt and the trenchcoat, none of that is Brandon. It’s all Chad. The most expensive part of getting the film out to the masses was super-imposing Brandon‘s face on to Chad‘s, utilizing the technology they had at the time, especially during the mirror scene where he punches it and breaks it. Crazy!

I kinda wish you'd talked about her when talking about the Adjudicator, but you didn't bring up my girlfriend and I's favorite character. A character who isn't named, and I can't even find a credit for, but she's there. In the switchboard room for the High Table, there's a trans woman working in a few of the shots. In a room where across three movies we have only EVER seen women. In a big budget movie threequel, distributed by Lionsgate, one of the biggest production companies in Hollywood, they unequivocally state: *Trans Women Are Women.* Almost every one of the people responsible for this movie worked with the Wachowskis, so it's not exactly hard to see why they'd be allies. That said, this is *so hugely important.* Loved the video Mikey, just wished there had been a little note in there when talking about Asia Kate Dillon and their contribution.

[@tjfrye11]

perhaps the reason why that scene was so important was because it wasn't thrown up in your face with the "look, we're so brave" mantra that any forced inclusivity nowadays instead of letting it happen naturally. in other words, the message wasn't "trans women are women", the message was "people are people, shouldn't look deeper than that"... that way you don't just turn off a fanbase (like any project that's gone the route of forced diversity) & instead just welcome new members to the fanbase by simply saying "we're all just cogs in the machine". that was the same way the wachowskis handled it, they didn't draw media attention or anything, they just went through it because it made them feel more comfortable. i also think that's how mike handled the "non-binary" chick. he wasn't talking about how "brave" she was to say she was "non-binary", he was simply saying that she was the representation of crime, or rather the order within crime. it wasn't a moment to talk about the actress, it was a moment to talk about what the character represented... now to switch gears, it's weird that she's y'alls favorite character just because she's trans though (since she didn't have enough screentime to really do anything, & was probably just an extra). a favorite character should be someone you relate to because of their morals & ideals, not because of skin color, gender, or politics...

[@Draukagrissah]

I'm just going to point out one thing: Winston could have shot John Wick in the face when he "attempted to kill" him. Instead, he deliberately shoots him in his suit. Winston knows what kind of suit John Wick has, and shooting him in the suit is basically pointless. Yet instead of aiming for his head during the entire roof top assassination, he continues to shoot him in the suit.

[@PyroTurtleGaming]

I understand the work and care that went into this movie. but there are crucial aspects from the first movies that are blatantly missing here. If anyone is willing to hear me out here are my thoughts on what ruined the film for me. Let me start with some things they did well. I think the opening of the movie was very strong. John fighting the clock while trying to get things in order in has a lot of great tension and energy. the scene in the library felt very well executed and was very reminiscent of the first two movies. capping this off with his impromptu stitching that ends up running out his time was very well done. Something I admire about all the characters we've seen so far in the series is their commitment to professionalism in this dark profession, John's old acquaintance Cassian in John Wick 2 and the doctor in this film are great examples of that. Cassian obviously didn't want to kill John but he had a job to do. and the Doctor would have liked to help John finish the stitches but couldn't as a professional. the Characters where this professionalism is notably absent are the man killed with the book and the group led by Zero but ill get to that later. I also think the scenes with Sofia were done exceptionally well and the fact that Halle Berry put a substantial amount of work into her performance was palpable. the camera work and the flow of the action were very well done No complaints about her or any of her scenes at all. Now to the things I didn't like. Because I already talked about professionalism I'll start there. The two major examples of characters lacking professionalism in this film are, as I said before, The man killed in the library and at times the group led by Mark Dacascos' character Zero. one of these works in favor of the film while the other does not. In the case of The man in the library Ernest. He ignored the fact that John still had time and tried to take him down while he was alone. John and more importantly the movie rewards his lack of professionalism with an incredibly brutal death. With the group led by Zero, it's a bit weird. they act professionally in all aspects that don't include John. They are shown to be capable of systematically killing buildings full of people and dispense their orders without hesitation. but when it comes to John they repeatedly allow him to get back up. as well as Zero talking a bigger game than he shows. and example of which is in the Grand Central Station scene, where when a group of children walks between them Zero says something to the effect of "That's why you're different. I wouldn't have stopped." seemingly to claim he would do whatever he has to to get his job done, while at the same time immediately disproving his statement because he did stop as well as later disproving it again by choosing to toy with John instead of killing him during their final fight with his disappearing act. Mark Dacascos' character felt forced and unearned to me. the way he was introduced halfway through the film to be presented as a comparable rival to John did not feel earned. The fact that not only him, but some of his lackeys had several chances to kill him and simply didn't because they were fans doesn't feel right. they were hired to do something and they purposefully didn't for no real reason. it felt like the script was trying to let John live for no other reason than because he had to live. the fact that this whole group can seemingly disappear is also very overused in my opinion. The strong continuity, realism, and ability to reliably follow a fight suffers because if the enemy can literally disappear in an instant, what's the point of trying to follow what they are really doing. If this was only ever used on random side/background characters it would be fine, but the ability to read the action in fights with John is crucial. I feel if they had built up that there is someone new that might be capable of matching john prior to his proper introduction much of this could have been avoided because he wouldn't be a random John Wick fanboy introduced in the middle of the movie. The most damning thing that's missing is the subtlety of the previous two movies underworld. a good example of this is the scene in Grand Central Station. in previous films, public killings were masked either by loud music and flashing lights or even just trying to hide what they are doing from the public eye by firing silenced guns being held low and as covered as possible. Yet in this scene, they openly kill people in direct view of everyone and nobody has any reaction whatsoever. are we supposed to believe that all of New York is now under the control of the table or at least the general underworld? This is a massive issue considering, for me at least, the fact that this secret underworld exists right under the noses of the common people was one of the most compelling aspects about the world. I have other more petty complaints but I don't think they add much to discussion. I would be interested to hear what any of you have to say about my thoughts. if you've made it this far thanks for reading.
